Hamilton Beach The Scoop Single Serve Coffeemaker

You won't have to worry about picking up single-serve pods with this Good Housekeeping VIP Award Winner — Hamilton Beach's The Scoop Single Serve Coffeemaker brews a great cup of piping hot java (up to 14 ounces) using the ground coffee of your choice. This great budget buy has two settings — regular and bold — and the latter brews for a slightly more extended period of time, allowing the coffee grounds to saturate longer. It easily accommodates a thermal travel mug and can be adjusted to brew into a mug or cup. Plus, this appliance comes with two scoops and has a convenient hook on the side to hang one on.
